More Introduction

1. Introduction to SASO Certification

SASO is the abbreviation of the English Saudi Arabian Standards Organization, that is, the Saudi Arabian Standards Organization. Many SASO standards are based on the safety standards of relevant international organizations such as the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC). The Ministry of Industry and Commerce of Saudi Arabia and SASO require that all products included in the SASO certification standard have SASO certification when entering Saudi customs. Products without SASO certificates will be refused entry by Saudi port customs. SASO standards apply not only to products imported from abroad, but also to products produced in Saudi Arabia.

4. SASO certification form

1. Pre-shipment Compliance Verification

This method is best for exporters or manufacturers with very few shipments. Pre-shipment inspection (PSI) and pre-shipment test (PST) are required before each shipment. Both are qualified to get the CoC certificate.

2. Product Registration (Registration)

This method is suitable for the vast majority of customers. Its advantage is that although each shipment inspection (PSI) is necessary, each batch of goods does not need to be pre-shipped test (PST). By submitting a declaration of compliance, providing a test report that meets the importing country and relevant international or domestic standards, and declaring that the product has met the basic requirements and national differences of the importing country, the registration qualification certificate Statement for Registration (SfR) can be obtained.

3. Type Approval Licensing

This method can not only save the inspection fee or testing fee before each shipment, simplify the repeated application procedure, but also guarantee the delivery time. favored by the company. The exporter or manufacturer's products can obtain the Statement for Licence (SfL) certificate only if they fully comply with the mandatory standards of the importing and exporting countries. The certificate is valid for one year. Before the expiration, it is necessary to submit an updated factory inspection report and pay the annual fee, which can be renewed after being reviewed by RLC. Products that have obtained the SfL certificate no longer require pre-shipment inspection (PSI) for each batch of goods, but are reduced to a few random inspections a year (usually 2-3 times per year, depending on the product condition).

At the same time, it must comply with SASO standards or equivalent international standards; if the documents are not accepted, the on-site sampling test needs to be rescheduled;

5. All products exported to Saudi Arabia, such as applying for SASO-COC, will no longer accept the internal test report of the factory, and a third-party product test report issued by a qualified laboratory must be provided;

6. For the electrical and electronic products exported to Saudi Arabia, if they are Class II electrical appliances, remember to display the back-shaped mark on the product label and packaging; LCL, the 9 types of high-risk products that are not in the whole cabinet, although it is impossible to supervise the installation, but the inspection needs to be completed.
